Computational predictions of the tensile properties of electrospun fibre meshes: Effect of fibre diameter and fibre orientation
(2008)The mechanical properties of biomaterial scaffolds are crucial for their efficacy in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine. At the microscopic scale, the scaffold must be sufficiently rigid to support cell adhesion, ...

The effect of boron additions on the tribological behaviour of TiN coatings produced by electron-beam evaporative PVD
(1999)TiN coatings containing small amounts of boron were synthesized by electron beam evaporating a Ti-B alloy material from a single crucible source into a plasma comprising Ar or an Ar/N2 mixture at a substrate temperature ...

Evaluating the microstructure and performance of nanocomposite PVD TiAlBN coatings
(2002)Physical vapour deposition (PVD) TiAlBN coatings can exhibit excellent wear resistance, with optimised coating compositions demonstrating a 150% increase in lifetime compared to standard TiAlN coatings in wet-cutting drill ...

Mechanical and tribological properties of hard aluminium-carbon multilayer films prepared by the Laser-Arc technique
(1998)The method of laser-induced vacuum arc (Laser-Arc) combines the good controllability of pulsed laser deposition with the high efficiency of a vacuum arc technique. One advantage of this technique is the reduction of droplets, ...

Structure, mechanical and tribological properties of sputtered TiAlBN thin films
(1999)TiAlBN films were produced by simultaneously sputtering from TiAl and TiB2 targets in Ar/N2 mixtures at a substrate temperature of 150 °C. The goal of this investigation was to study the influence of the nitrogen content ...
